Jadeith's usually calm expression couldn't hide the turmoil in his chest when he hung up the phone. If not for this very shocking news, he certainly wouldn't dare to disturb his uncle who was troubled by his daughter's condition.
He patted Caspar's shoulder slowly and signalled Caspar to follow him to the corner of the room. They had just landed at Bern and were waiting for a medical helicopter to pick Aleksis up. She was to be taken to their home in Grindelwald.
"Uncle ... something very bad happened to Kurt," Jadeith said in a trembling voice. He had never been this emotional before and it made Caspar wonder.
"What's the matter? Quick tell me!" Caspar urged.
"Kurt was targeted by Rhionen Assassins and … they killed him ..."
Caspar had to hold onto the wall to calm his mind down.
Kurt died! His mind instantly went dark.
